We take pride in possessions It’s like a present we can’t keep And now i see wear caught in the tension And all i wanna do is sleep Coz you know it’s just a A mark we can mention It’s like a means without an end But i feel there Must be a lesson And i will break before i bend What if tomorrow never came What would you say To a reflection of yourself And the price that we pay When everything you know is wrong And you’ve paid for it This day could be the greatest And we can’t wait for a second This is immediate indeed Because we want, we want, we want And we’ve forgotten what we need Brace for it This isn’t permanent We lost ourselves inside the thing that we covet What if tomorrow never came What would you say To a reflection of yourself And the price that we pay When everything you know is wrong And you’ve paid for it This day could be the greatest Breathe Just breathe

I’ve stumbled upon this place This great escape Now fifteen years have passed And i am still the same We represent this life because it’s all we know And what if i’m left wanting There must be something more Than this emptiness i keep filling and re-filling Another night is left with nothing honest In my veins And questions go unanswered I’m left with no-one else to blame This clarity, oh god, this clarity is killing me Patience sinks through the floor As this vacant love just mirrors yours And i’m still reminded who i was Like letters in lockets and screamed applause We watched the days bleed into darkness A beginning with no end In love with love and yet we settle For this silent supplement But what of life If all we really know is loyalty unlived This clarity, oh god, this clarity, it’s all i see And what is left of me? Patience sinks through the floor As this vacant love just mirrors yours And i’m still reminded who i was Like letters in lockets and screamed applause We’ve buried these bottles Now all we have is this honesty

Did you ever stop to think about the day That we met Where we were It’s funny now, it seems so far away Like your picture In reverse And day by day the time would pass Till you and i were there at last Alone, alone with nothing left to say I kissed you then and i could see That you and i’d forever be So close and still we end so far away Far away At midnight you would still be on my mind I would call you On the phone And hand in hand we’d wander through this night To your door step To our home Your eyes would tell me so much more With each and every kitchen floor A moment filled with unforgiving truth And now what can i do When everything reminds me of you Coz you are a skyrocket Blasting off leaving nothing in your wake And me, i’m a falling bomb and I only end in one way So i’m sorry for the things i said And the words that you have never read For the way that we refused to feel And the times that we will never have

about

Following the success of their most recent record “Realization | Release”, CONVERSATION have shifted gears with a stripped down, live off the floor EP known as “Blackstock Sessions - Live and Unplugged”.
This raw and unapologetic record boasts 3 brand new arrangements of previously released songs that showcase a delicacy and diversity to what the post-hardcore quintet are capable of.
Songs that have only ever been heard with the full force and intensity that CONVERSATION are known to deliver have been stripped away and re-built into new poignant and pensive arrangements which are sure to surprise and delight their already growing fanbase.
